Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Horn started to sound when I was in a parking lot at low to no speed. It would not stop. I had to pull the fuse to disconnect. Dealer said entire horn with airbag assembly needed to be replaced. I was under warranty, but I noticed the repair ticket had a cost in the range of $700 to $1,000 to complete the job. I bet a lot of people just leave horn and airbag disconnected rather than pay that much money, especially if the car is older.”

I bet a lot of people just leave horn and airbag disconnected rather than pay that much money. I have seen many people complain about the same.”
NHTSA complaint #10722327, filed 2015-05, 73,500 miles“I applied pressure to the steering wheel to activate the horn and the horn would not stop blaring after I removed my hand. The only way to get it to stop was to lean heavily on the steering wheel where the horn is. I was in heavy traffic with no place to pull over, so it was a very dangerous situation. Ultimately, I had to remove the fuse that controls the horn and incidentally the air bags, rendering both the horn and air bags inoperable.”
NHTSA complaint #10569314, filed 2014-03, 87,000 miles“I have been communicating with Chrysler cs about the takata air-bag recall. Chrysler has informed me that they are planning a recall in 4 states, one of which is florida for registered vehicles, no definite dates, etc. My vehicle is not registered in florida but is there about 6 months a year. Because it is not registered in florida, Chrysler has no plans to include it in their recall. Please force Chrysler to recall all vehicles in the us, or at least all of those that spend time in the areas of greatest risk.”
